Speaking of saggy skin.... I was laying next to hubby the other day and I just had on bra and panties... Well my bra is getting too big ( again) and the way I was laying my boob had "extra" skin that was just kinda wrinkly and he looked down and said eww... That looks just like a ball sack! I laughed and said joke all you want cuz next summer they will be big and perky again and you have to pay for it !!!!

Lmbo that's right he wants to enjoy let him pay

I had the RNY when I was 22. I lost 175 lbs. I ended up getting a Tummy Tuck 5 years later because I tried everything under the sun to get a tight stomach. Believe me' date=' no amount of creams or sit ups will get rid of saggy skin. Period.[/quote']

They did a great job! Are you getting any other Surgery done?

I will eventually. I'd like to have a breast lift and my thighs and butt lifted. You'd be crazy to do them all at once though. The Tummy Tuck alone took me a month to even stand up straight and not have to walk with a walker. Totally worth it though!

My moms recovery was rough too. She was slouched over for about a month she had drains and pain pumps... The works! But on the bright side she looks amazing.

As do you! Really Amazing! What about your Arms? My arms are killer!

Thanks for the pics!

I know I'm nuts but decided for my 35 birthday December I will get my boobs done. The rest August 2014. I'm getting fat transfer from my body to my butt this is the main reason why it needs to be done together. I think I'm a stuff woman. I handle 3 c sections & did it alone my spouse doesn't feed change diapers or carry babies. I slept with kids in crib. Took no pain killer at bed to be able to hear the kids. I then had WLS once again alone next day after WLS went food shopping with my teenager. If I'm having the worst pain ever & I need help I will call my Mami. She is always there for emergencies :) my teenager has a job now so I don't think she can take care of me next year.

I am NOT looking forward to the saggy skin either. I just hope that I will look decent enough to feel comfortable in clothing! I definitely don't think that this surgery will boost my confidence about my body, but I am not doing it for looks. This is for my health, my life, ME, not the visual pleasure of anyone else ;)

Has anyone looked into mammoplasty surgery for their boobs? It's pretty much a breast reduction. My mom had it done a couple of years ago and hers look great. If your saggy they take the extra skin off and reshape your boobs. And most insurances PAY for it if your having back problems and if you have bad shoulder divots from bra straps. I think that's what I'm going to go for. I never lose weight in my boobs so I'll still be a DD even if I'm 140lbs. But I can make them look better.

I had the mammoplasty back in 2004 and I was a 46DDD , you have to have so many cc's for the insurance to approve it, I was a 44C after the surgery and they told me in another 10 years is when they would suggest a lift

I think my mom was a 38DD and she went down to a full c. But shes back up to a D. They look alot better then they did before. I think they have to remove 250cc from each.

I never heard of it. I'm going to ask my doctor if my insurance cover this. If not back to paying 5,500 for boobs :)

I'm looking into it because it contributes to my chronic pain a great deal. Hopefully surgery would reduce the 44 f I currently lug around.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
